Care was substandard at best. Socks were not changed for 21 days. PT stopped coming and he kept getting weaker instead of better. His care seemed to lack coordination between care givers for the differing ailments. Stayed an extra 3-4 days awaiting discharge due to lack of communication regarding terms of discharge. Food was delivered to foyer and patient was bed bound and could not eat until a family member arrived. Bathing consisted of a wipe under the arms. Got bed sores from neglect and an air bed was promised, but the ones delivered did not work and he never got one. Fresh water was not brought into the room daily. Nurses seemed rushed and overworked and would sometimes take over an hour to respond to the nurse call button. Stayed for 24 days, and this was typical of the floor areas. Spent several days in CCU, and that unit was great. The time spent in the cath lab was also great. Would not recommend this hospital any longer since HCA has taken over. Have been to TRH many times in the past and have witnessed a decline since the takeover by HCA.
